led strobe lights

hey guys I am going to be getting into plowing with my truck and want an led strobe light bar or led strobes that go into the headlights and tail lights or flush mount leds for the grille and maybe on my headach rack. My question is what do you guys recommend? I want something that looks good, functions well, has a warranty and isnt a pain to install. I dont need anything huge just something for our shop that ill be plowing.

I would stick with Code 3, Whelen or Federal. They cost a little more up front, but their quality, light output and warranty are much better than the cheap imitations.

Here's a link to the Code 3 amber website:

Code3 products for Warning/PSE vehicles D.O.T. Utility / Public Works Tow Truck Snow Plow

I've installed most of their products, and have had good luck overall.

Check local laws for color usage and other requirements. While I'm sure you can use it on private property, the street is something else.

Do you know of an instance or location where amber might be a problem?

Not usually amber, but other colors can cause problems (especially in my state).

Pops,
There are several laws in our state that make it illegal for private persons to use flashing yellow lights on any public road. Here is a page for reading pleasure. WAIS Document Retrieval

I would look through this site SIRENNET.COM - Search

That is a like to all their own product lights that cost about 1/2 the cost of whelen lights. I have had great luck with there led hidaways and the 6 LED Linear lights and are a great company that stand behind all there products.
